For my feet at least, after taking advice some more experienced runner I went out and bought some proper running shoes, New Balance 850s to be precise. My wallet was most annoyed though, 85 funking quid for a pair of trainers! I also bought a very fine looking pair of socks that promise to reduce muscle cramps, bruising and blistering. That’s a bold statement for a pair of socks but they do look good too. So that’s my feet sorted, just need to get the rest of my body in shape.

Wish me luck, I’ll need it. (I might have this as a signature at the bottom of every post)
